When the dust settled on last Saturday's dramatic All-Ireland club SFC final and most of the crowd had gone home, Kilcoo manager Mickey Moran took a walk around the Croke Park pitch by himself.

As he made his way towards the Hill 16 end, he stopped to kneel down and kiss the spot Jerome Johnston scored his winning goal from with only seconds remaining in extra-time.

After losing All-Ireland finals with Mayo, Slaughtneil and Kilcoo, the Derryman - who is never one for the limelight - had finally got his just reward.
